Your too kind & generous - I can't take credit for much - all I did was flesh out the Logic
.lso that Yamaha provided with the missing parameters. Those other VERY cool
environments were created by people far more clever than me - but I bet they'd be happy
somebody is making use of them.

I think I got it...boy, has it been a long time since I used OMS...
Go ahead and create a New Studio Setup doc for the FW-1804.
Now use the New Device command under the Studio menu - create a definition for the
AN1x.
Once you've created the definition, the little synth icon for your AN1x will appear in the
Studio Setup Doc - click + drag the AN1x synth icon to the FW-1804 port from which it is
physically connected.
Remember to Save and Make Current, then you can use the Test Studio command to try it
out!
If you still have problems - you MIGHT need the old FireWire System Extensions for OS 9
(they are not part of Classic, go figure?!? HA Ha ha) I found a copy of v2.5 on Version
Tracker and used TomeViewer to extract them and install them in the OS 9 System folder (I
know, I know - I have no life...) I did a restart of Classic and the FW Extensions show in
System Profiler - It's late and I'm tired, but I'll try and mount a FW drive or something to
Classic tomorrow to test. If you need help with the Extensions, email me offline...

I've had very good luck with an Emagic MT4 and I had a MIDIMAN UNO working under
classic. Last year I helped one of the fellas on the list with a MOTU Fastlane that also
worked. The trick is to find a USB MIDI Interface with OS 9 USB drivers. All the above do,
but newer devices might not have them anymore.
